How many bags do you take to work??

This is my 4th week back to work and I'm still looking for the most convenient way to transport my purse, lunch, pump parts and pumped milk to and from work everyday. My parking lot is not close and I work on the second floor so it's a haul carrying everything. I dont need my pump at home but its almost easier to lug it around since it holds the milk, parts, and hands free bra.

I carry a lightweight crossbody purse. I carry my laptop in a backpack. I have a slim lunch bag and it fits in the backpack. So, between these two bags I still have both hands free.

For pumping, I found a lunch bag that fits 6 bottles + the pump flanges (the parts that need to be cleaned every day) that fits inside my Medela PISA metro bag (it sticks out the top a bit but it fits). When I need to carry the whole pump to/from work I just have the metro bag with the lunch bag inside. I usually leave my pump (with the tubing, handsfree bra, etc.) at work during the week and just carry the lunch bag with the bottles and parts to and from work.
